302 - Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces not properly washed and sanitized [s. 17(2)]
Observation:
The 3rd sink, in the manually 3-compartment sink, leaks and staff are not able to fill it with sanitizer to soak (2 minutes) and sanitize dishware. This is NOT acceptable as bacteria will survive on the dishes and can be passed to customers.
Corrective Action(s):
Immediately repair or replace the broken parts of the 3-compartment sink so that it doesn't leak and basins can be filled, so proper manually dishwashing can be done. Have staff fill one sink with soapy hot water to wash and another sink with sanitizer. The broken sink shall be used to rinse soapy water off until it is fixed. Failure to fix the problem by the assigned date will result in the issuance or orders, tickets, fines, and or closure.
